FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of construction equipment, and particularly to a floor grinding machine.

BACKGROUND

Floor grinding machine is an automated equipment used to polish or grind a concrete ground. The floor grinding machine can be widely used in floor construction for underground garages and industrial plants, and is an indispensable equipment in processes of epoxy floor construction, curing floor construction and emery floor construction. The floor grinding machine is mainly used to remove a laitance on concrete surfaces (after the concrete is completely dried out), so as to carry out subsequent floor surface construction work. The floor grinding machine can carry out a floor polishing or floor grinding function by changing different machine tool heads. In order to achieve better grinding efficiency and grinding quality for floor grinding, it is necessary to frequently replace tool heads (or grinding discs) for different ground qualities.

At present, a general method for replacing tool heads (or grinding discs) is to manually tip over the whole equipment, so that the whole equipment is toppled over on the ground, and then a tool head (or grinding disc) can be replaced. After the tool head (or grinding disc) is replaced, it is also necessary to lift the equipment manually to restore it to a workable state, which is very physically exhausting. In addition, in order to improve work efficiency, floor grinding machines currently on the market are showing a trend of having larger and larger work areas, resulting in the weight of the equipment themselves becoming heavier and heavier, and the weight of many equipment has exceeded 500 kg. Therefore, it usually requires multiple people to move the equipment, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and improper operation may even cause harm to the operator. In addition, due to the frequent tilting of the whole machine caused by frequent replacement of tool heads or grinding discs, water in water tank of the floor grinding machines is easy to overflow after the whole machine is tilted, resulting in uselessness of the water tank of the floor grinding machines on the market. Operators usually use additional buckets for manual watering, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Furthermore, the floor grinding machines currently on the market are usually powered by cables, so that it requires the operator to push during a transition process, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
